Big Block
In many cities, the size of each city block is standardized. There may be 8 or 10 blocks per mile, for example, in the downtown area. In many suburbs, or other areas, you will find places where you would expect there to be a cross-street, but it was omitted, leading to an extra-long walk or drive before encountering a cross street. This is described as a "big block," so you know what to expect when you are in the area.

Boffin
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”
Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
